Cristo Rey Brooklyn High School
transforms DREAMS into AMBITION
and AMBITION into REALITY.
More than 90% of Cristo Rey Brooklyn graduates enroll in college, more than
twice the rate of minority graduates nationally. And students from a Cristo Rey
school are twice as likely to graduate from college than their peers from the
same economic background.
“The life circumstances of our students
may be the reason that drew us to
this mission, but that cannot afford to
serve as an excuse for not expecting
the very best from the young people to
whose future we have been entrusted.
They are not victims. We may not be
able to rewrite their history, but we can
help change their future.”
— Bill Henson,
President, CRBHS

Letter from The President
and Board Chair
Dear Friends,
Over six years ago Lourdes Academy High School,
ensconced in a former Bushwick, Brooklyn elementary school dating back to WWI, first
opened its doors. Days later Wall Street giant
Lehman Brothers collapsed, signaling the “Great
Recession”. For a NYC start-up school with no
alumni, no track record, no public funding, created expressly for low income students, and dependent upon a distinctive work study model, it signaled disaster.
For three years, staff and supporters soldiered
on, barely able to afford textbooks (never mind an
Annual Report), determined to provide a safe, values based college prep education to families who
otherwise could not afford one. But reality finally
caught up with the school. After much discussion
and with support from the Cristo Rey Network
and Brooklyn Diocese, the reconstituted board
of directors initiated a major restructuring to help
turn around the rechristened Cristo Rey Brooklyn
High School.
Like a city boulevard after spring thaw, the journey
was fraught with potholes. But thanks to numerous
dedicated individuals and organizations, triumphs
isappointments. Enrollment
far outweighed d
doubled. Leading firms such as American Express,
Wall Street Journal, and Brooklyn Hospital joined
early work study sponsors like JPMorgan and
Skadden Arps. Original higher education partners,
St. Francis and St. Joseph’s were joined by St. John’s,
Brooklyn College, and NYU to offer a wealth of
unique programs.
This year we aligned with two new organizations:
thanks to the Mid-Atlantic Community of the Sisters
of Mercy we moved into a legitimate high school
facility twice the size of our previous home. We
partnered with Boys Hope Girls Hope NY to offer a
boarding program for up to 50 students. Most
important, our young people are translating this
promise into tangible achievements: over 75% of
the Class of 2014 are attending colleges ranked
selective or higher, are having full financial need
met and are first generation college students!
Three graduating classes, two major partners
and one new facility later, the turnaround is largely
complete. Cristo Rey Brooklyn is positioned to
reach its vision and fulfill its mission. To that end,
we launched the $5 million Campaign for Cristo
Rey Brooklyn this past year, to provide the growth
capital needed to reach even more economically
disadvantaged students. In six months we raised
more than 50% of our goal thanks to the gener
osity of our many friends.
Inspired and blessed by the commitment of our
partners and benefactors, and the success of
our young students whose lives are transformed
as a result, we eagerly anticipate the successful
completion of our campaign and a school growing
in Brooklyn for many years to come. Thank you for
your support.
Gratefully,
William P. Henson
President

Our Mission
and Vision
Cristo Rey Brooklyn is a Catholic high school open
to students of all faiths. Our mission is to transform
young people of limited economic means into men
and women of faith, purpose, and service. By
offering a rigorous curriculum, a unique work study
experience, and the support of an inclusive school
community, we prepare students to succeed in
college and beyond with values essential to a
fulfilling life.
Our vision is to be considered one of the best high
schools in New York as measured by academic
achievement, graduation rates, college acceptance
and post-graduate success, and to do so without
being constrained by labels, qualifiers or reduced
expectations (e.g. “low-income,” “inner city,”
“minority,” “faith-based”).
“In our minds, our students’ success will not only be measured by
whether or not they will be able to be admitted into a competitive
college or to move into a job that pays well. We also are committed
to empowering students to look at their communities, by becoming
the type of person that pays forward the opportunities granted to
them for the larger good.”

Director of Campus Ministry, CRBHS

Our School is Part of a Large,
Dynamic and Growing Network
Cristo Rey Brooklyn High School is a member
of the Cristo Rey Network: the largest national
association of private high schools. Cristo Rey is
on the forefront of educational reform, providing a
quality, Catholic, college preparatory education to
urban young people who live in communities with
limited educational options.
The first Cristo Rey School was founded in
Chicago by the Jesuits in 1996. It was so successful that the network has now grown to 28
schools across the country, with two new schools
joining the movement in September 2015.
Cristo Rey schools have always been about
giving a chance to students who may be short on
opportunities but not on ambition, and Cristo Rey
Brooklyn High School is no different.

A School Grows in Brooklyn
Brooklyn is the most populous borough in New
York. If it were an independent city, it would rank
as the fourth largest city in the United States.
The need for a successful Cristo Rey school in
Brooklyn is great because:
■■
■■
■■
Nearly half of Brooklyn’s residents live in or on
the verge of poverty
Five of the ten poorest census tracts in New York
City are in Brooklyn
In Brooklyn’s low-income neighborhoods, the
percentage of young people between the ages
of 16-24 who are neither in school nor working
continues to grow
Who We Serve
Cristo Rey Brooklyn High School currently serves
close to 300 low-income children from some of
New York’s highest poverty, highest crime rate
areas, including nearby neighborhoods like
Bedford Stuyvesant, Brownsville, East New York,
and Crown Heights, but also as far away as
Co-Op City in the Bronx:
■■
■■
Average per capita income of less than $10,000
per year
Average disposable family income of negative
$15,000
■■
Significant majority from single-parent homes
■■
100% minority students
■■
Many students enter 9th grade below grade level
“The students that we accept are
gritty; they’re willing to work.”
— Aris Clemons, Director of
Admissions, CRBHS

Meet RAJAE CLARKE
Class of 2017
When Rajae Clarke thinks of Cristo Rey Brooklyn, he thinks of family.
Rajae and his family moved from Jamaica in the middle of his freshmen
year, and he was a rare mid-year transfer to CRBHS. From the moment he
walked through the doors of 710 E 37th Street, his classmates, teachers,
and staff welcomed him with open arms and helped him adjust to his
new community.
“Coming from Jamaica and knowing no one in Brooklyn, everyone at Cristo
Rey was very welcoming and became part of my extended family. All the
students, teachers, and staff were so willing to help me no matter what.”
Now a sophomore, Rajae has become an integral part of the CRBHS community. He is a star player on the soccer team, serves as student ambassador, and engages in various Campus Ministry activities. He credits Cristo
Rey with helping him grow into a responsible, young man and pushing him
to take on challenges outside of his comfort zone.
Meet ELIANA ALVAREZ
Class of 2014
A freshman at Fordham University, Eliana Alvarez credits Cristo Rey
Brooklyn with preparing her for college success. Both the college prep
curriculum and the work study experience provided her with the necessary
skills for her time at Fordham.
“My time at Cristo Rey Brooklyn taught me how to maintain professional relationships with everyone I meet. I am comfortable interacting with
professors and deans at Fordham and know how to use these relationships to take advantage of all the available resources to help me succeed
in college.”
She applies the professional skills learned through her jobs at the Brooklyn
Botanic Garden, Cullen & Dykman, and Blackstone to her current work
study job at Fordham.
“I know how to behave in a professional environment – to always take
notes, to ask questions for clarification, and to always take initiative.”

A Generation of Firsts
They are American.
Dominican. Ecuadorian. Multi-racial.
From Guiana.
They’re New Yorkers. Immigrants.
Living in East New York or Bed Stuy.
They represent a series of firsts.
The first in their family to go to college.
Maybe even high school.
The first to intern at a corporation.
And to earn their high school tuition.
They’re students. Dreamers. Survivors. Strivers.
They are next.
On the verge.
Buds to blossom forth.
Feet poised to run.
And with much to conquer.
They are ready.
—Poem written by the
Class of 2013
These children have a far higher chance of being
shut out from a quality education solely on the
basis of their family income and circumstances.
With the opportunities that come with Cristo Rey’s
unique model, they transform from a product of
their environment to a generation of firsts: the first
to go to college, and the first to have the opportunity to use their education to rise above, uplifting
not only themselves but their families and communities around them.
After attending Cristo Rey Brooklyn, 80% of our
students will be the first in their families to go
to college.

Meet ADALBERTO PENA
Class of 2015
During his four years at Cristo Rey Brooklyn, senior Adalberto Pena has
grown into a responsible young man who is a leader both inside and
outside the classroom. As an underclassman, he struggled academically,
did not participate in class, and shied away from leadership opportunities.
Today, he is an active participant in all his classes, consistently seeks out
his teachers to improve his academic performance, and serves as both
a student ambassador and a peer leader. Last summer, he was part of a
group of nine students who traveled to the Dominican Republic on a service
trip to help a local community build a sports court.
“Cristo Rey Brooklyn has helped me grow into the person I am today. The
teachers and staff have helped me understand the value of this education,
pushing me to take advantage of opportunities, and supporting me no
matter what.”
“Our strength is the quality of the students we attract.
What they lack in academic background, they make up
for in motivation and eagerness to succeed.”
— Richard Reyes, Principal, CRBHS
Meet MARIAMA BARRY
Class of 2015
Mariama Barry is still a senior in high school, but she has already spent
time on multiple college campuses. During this past summer she attended a three-week college immersion program at Georgetown University, a
Cristo Rey Network university partner. With 44 students from other Cristo
Rey schools, she took college-level courses, lived in a residence hall,
explored Washington, D.C., and interacted with Georgetown students, faculty, and administrators. She continued to take college-level courses back
at Cristo Rey Brooklyn through a partnership with St. Joseph’s College.
Every Tuesday she travels with 15 other seniors to the St. Joseph’s campus
in Clinton Hill to take a genetics class in the fall and a sociology class in the
spring, in addition to a full course load at CRBHS.
Mariama is a part of our boarding program with Boys Hope Girls Hope, an
experience that has also helped prepare her for college.
“Living in the dorm has prepared me to live away from home during college.
I have been able to be independent and take responsibility for my own
education. I have to manage my time to balance my homework, my extracurricular activities, and other responsibilities.”

Putting Education to Work
The Corporate Work
Study Program that
all students at Cristo
Rey network schools
participate in is an innovative educational and
financial model enabling
students to earn up to
half of the cost of their
education while gaining
real-world experience
through immersion in
entry-level positions at
leading corporations
and non-profits.
Students also grow
their self-confidence
and realize the relevance, and real value
of their education.
“Our students’ unique experience in the workplace
not only gives them exposure to the professional
world, but also helps them to mature in ways other
high school students do not. They go to college with
an understanding of how to be successful as an
adult and a kid at the same time.”

— Ed Davey, Director of Corporate
Work Study Program, CRBHS
4/18/15 3:32 PM
“Cristo Rey goes the next step. They are taking students
and putting them into their futures.”
— Stephen Palmese, Massey Knakal, Corporate Work
Study Partner, and CRBHS Board Member
How the Program Works
A team of five students covers one full-time
equivalent position without missing class. They
work 9:30–5:15 pm, Monday through Friday,
from September to June, with an option to
work year round.
Companies get motivated and reliable talent
for entry level positions without the cost of
additional benefits.
For students, it’s a hand-up, not a hand-out.
Students obtain their education while gaining professional work experience as well
as e
xposure to adult co-workers who have
attended college.
Our diverse work study program consists of
engaged corporate and non-profit partners
who provide our students with paid work
experiences. Our students work at businesses
of all shapes and sizes — IT, legal, finance,
health care, media, and more.

“The Cristo Rey work study program provides students with exposure
to a professional environment that sets them both apart and ahead.
They are prepared to take on future internships, college, and to enter
the workforce with confidence.”
— Kelly Ong, Weitz & Luxemberg,
Corporate Work Study Partner
Introduction to Our
Work Study Program
American Express: Five Students
Students at American Express work in the Global Real Estate

Microsoft Excel and continue to challenge themselves daily.
Brooklyn Hospital: Five Students
At Brooklyn Hospital the students work in several different
departments including Women’s Health, Dental, La Providencia
Health Clinic, Ambulatory Services, and Volunteer Services.
They complete primarily administrative tasks including filling,
compiling files for new patients, confirming appointments, and
receiving and welcoming patients. The students also have the
opportunity to shadow doctors related to the students’ interest
in a field of medicine.
the Mayor’s Office of Special Events so students were invited

Our New Boarding Program
Cristo Rey Brooklyn is the only school in the Cristo Rey Network to offer
a boarding program. We have partnered with Boys Hope Girls Hope New
York (BHGHNY) to offer a unique, on-campus residence program where
up to 50 young women reside Sunday – Friday while school is in session.
As part of the program they receive additional academic support, professional development, and enrichment opportunities to complement their
curriculum.
Cristo Rey Brooklyn is pleased to welcome these young women into our
family and is grateful for the support of BHGHNY that has enabled us to
extend our admissions reach beyond the Brooklyn and Queens communities, and to offer a viable residential alternative to female students who
face especially challenging home situations.

On The Road to Success
After opening our doors six years ago, at the
advent of the 2008 recession, and successfully
overcoming the economic and enrollment challenges of our start-up years, Cristo Rey Brooklyn
is now poised to emerge as a preeminent and
permanent college preparatory resource for many
more underserved students and families in the
New York metro area.
3. College Access and Matriculation:
■■ 100% 4-year college acceptance for all three
graduating classes
In our short history, Cristo Rey Brooklyn has a
demonstrable track record of:
■■
■■
1. Academic Achievement:
■■
Two year, 30% gain in ACT scores at Cristo
Rey Brooklyn (above the national average for
minority students)
2. Enrollment:
■■ Tripled enrollment since 2010
■■
The Class of 2014 received over 400 accept
ances from more than 125 colleges and univer
sities, and they earned $11 million in scholarships and grants
81% of the Class of 2014 is attending schools
ranked selective or higher, including Providence
College, Fordham University, College of the Holy
Cross, Franklin & Marshall College, Georgetown
University, Mt. Holyoke College, Syracuse

Our 85% college persistency rate exceeds by
a wide margin the retention rate for all students
regardless of socio-economic status
“We have crafted an individualized college placement
process that ensures that our graduates enroll at
colleges that challenge them academically and support
them financially: And our 85% retention rate (94% for
our most recent graduates) says that they are largely
succeeding once they get there.”

“More often than not, when talking to a Cristo Rey student, they will tell you that
one of their favorite things about being a student at a Cristo Rey school is the
Corporate Work Study Program. Their story usually starts something like, ‘I used
to be shy and nervous talking to adults, but now I am confident.’ Students also
get enlightened as to what career path they really want to pursue.”

In order to provide more opportunities to more students, we seek
more individuals, companies, and
organizations to partner with us.
Your support of our mission through
donation, as a work study sponsor
or volunteering is invaluable in helping us instill in our young people
the confidence, the skills, and the
determination to assume successful
ownership for their education and
their future.
Please visit us at
www.http://cristoreybrooklyn.org
to find out how you can help our
students thrive.
“Some of Cristo Rey’s
strengths are the ability to
dream big and grow. We
started off a small school
of about 100 students in an
elementary school building,
but now we have almost
300 students in a high
school building.”
